What does it really mean to be a man of God? In this powerful follow-up to Part One of the Biblical Masculinity series, we explore 8 core traits of a godly man through the PRIME MEN acrostic: Peacemaking, Repentant, Intentional, Meek, Enduring, Moral, Empathetic, and Noble.
With insight from scripture, stories of failure and redemption (from Adam to Jesus), and quotes from thinkers like C.S. Lewis, John Piper, and Voddie Baucham, this episode will challenge and inspire you to grow as a man of faith.
Whether you're a dad, a husband, or a young man figuring out what biblical manhood really looks like, this one is for you.
🔑 Key Topics:
- Why meek ≠weak (Jesus was both powerful and gentle)
- Endurance in suffering and fatherhood
- The cost of moral compromise
- How empathy and nobility set godly men apart
- Practical ways to grow in each area
📖 Scriptures Mentioned:
John 8, 1 Timothy 3, Ephesians 6, Genesis 18, Numbers 20, Judges 16, Matthew 4, Luke 23, Philippians 2, Proverbs 24, Micah 6:8
